I must admit that I was surprised to discover that I have not visited Waterford since 2021 especially as I was convinced that I had visited late in 2023.
I am trying to produce a comprehensive record, with photographs, of my visits and while the plan was to visit the city once every year every thing changed because of Covid-19 and I had no option but to cancel a number of visits.
While I thought that I had visited in 2023 this was not the case as my mother who was 103 years of age, at the time, was unwell so I had to cancel my October 2023 visit a few days before I was due to travel. The hotel would not allow me to reschedule for March 2024 and as I had difficulty finding suitable accommodation Waterford did not remain on my schedule for that year.
This year, 2025, I have booked the Granville.
As already mentioned, I thought that I had visited Waterford in 2023 but when I checked the records I discovered that cancelled the October trip and did not visit in 2024.
I stayed at the Portree in August 2021. I also stayed at the Portree in August 2019. This hotel is now block booked and effectively unavailable to visitors,
I stayed in the Fitzwilton in July 2018 and in August 2017. I was unable to book a room here in 2023 or 2024.
I had a room in May 2016 at the Waterford Marina Hotel. While I cannot find any records I know that I stayed at the Waterford Marina Hotel in 2015 or 2014.
